It has been announced that Project x Zone – a previously Japan-only RPG for the Nintendo 3DS – will in fact be getting a release this coming summer in North America, Europe and Australia.

Project x Zone is a rather unique style of RPG that borrows elements from fighting games in order to make the combat both flashy and exciting, whilst rewarding the player’s skill for creating successful combos. On top of this, the game is primarily known for having multiple characters and universes from Capcom (Street Fighter, Devil May Cry), Namco-Bandai (Tekken, Tales of Vesparia) and Sega (Virtua Fighter, Valkyria Chronicles) – all interacting with each other in a giant fan-dream crossover story.

Here is an extended trailer for Project x Zone:

I have personally had my eye on this game since it was first announced as a Japan-only title, so I’m ecstatic to have the chance to play it for myself, in English.

Back in March of last year, Final Fantasy XIII-2 was released and was generally well received (you can read my review on this blog!). However, the game also baffled players with its rather confusing cliff-hanger ending. Since then, Square-Enix tried to expand upon this through the use of extra DLC chapters, although these ultimately failed to satisfy the followers of the story and its universe.

Today, fans of the Final Fantasy XIII franchise are once again given something to feel excited about, as Square-Enix revealed through a trailer that Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII will be arriving in stores as soon as this coming Autumn.

This next instalment to the Final Fantasy XIII lore brings back Lightning as the main protagonist, in a desperate story that sees her awoken from a solid crystal sleep and immediately being tasked with having only 13 days to save the world.
